Bollywood comes together to pay tribute to Feroz Khan

Almost the entire Bollywood fraternity came together at the Ballroom of Hotel JW Marriott on Monday May 4th evening to pay tribute to the late Feroz Khan who passed away in Bangalore last week. The legendary actor-filmmaker’s last rites were performed in Bangalore according to his last wishes. But since a majority of Bollywood personas couldn’t attend it, a prayer service was arranged in Bollywood town Mumbai.

The Khan family consisting of Feroz Khan’s two children Fardeen and Laila were amongst the first ones to arrive along with their uncles Sanjay and Akbar Khan with their respective families. Hrithik’s wife Sussanne who is Sanjay Khan’s daughter, came along with her mom, while Hrithik came in a little later. The Bachchan trio of Amitabh, Abhishek and Aishwarya came together and left together as well. Big B was in London when the flamboyant actor-filmmaker expired last Monday therefore he could not attend Khan’s last rites ceremony. However, that time in his blog he had remembered Feroz as a gracious and warm hearted compassionate friend who was a flamboyant film maker, one that in the middle of his acting career became a producer and director and gave us some very memorable films - all with a certain stamp of flamboyance.

Shah Rukh Khan came in with wife Gauri Khan and so did Sanjay Dutt who visited with his wife Manyata. Dutt’s sister Priya Dutt came in separately. Then there were Dharmendra, Yash Chopra, Danny, Khan’s heroine of many films and also his son Fardeen’s mother-in-law Mumtaaz, Khan’s Qurbaani girl Zeenat Aman, Arjun Rampal, Chunky Pandey with wife Bhavana Pandey and Amisha Patel amongst others.

The whole atmosphere was glum and stars most of them all dressed in white appeared very emotional as they came out of the condolence meeting. -Sampurn Media
